Well, my car was not ready today. The GM mechanics didn't arrive till almost noon time (flight delayed). Went to take a look and the whole back of the car was still taped off to prevent scratches. Looks like there was very little left to do but then again I don't want to rush this at all.
As for THE fix everyone talks about. I believe the fix according to GM is first doing the band aid TSBs that trim the brackets and apply tape to the mechanics. If this doesn't work and the 5th bow breaks. They will then replace the whole top with the new mechanics.
Listening to the GM mechanics the TSBs for rubbing and 5th bow replacement work 90% of the time. They seem to believe the early release 2011s have the most issues with both the top and the water management system.
I didn't get a good look at the canvas that was going to be installed but I'm hoping for something similar to the original.
